But, seriously, it was a waste of money 😐

And i'm a bit confused with 52, as my shop "forgot" to pick up issue #50 (The most important issue in the goddamn series! 😠 )

So a recap from that issue would be nice (anyone?)

Pretty simple, "Black Adam bad" "DCU good".

Seriously a few magic users channel the Lighting Blast from Captain Marvel and use it too permanently transform BA back to normal. they also changed the codeword so now "Shazam" will no longer change BA to well " BA". Only CM knows the new code word. Other than that the whole issue was Black Adam fighting everyone.

No new plot twists in the other storylines? 😕

Red tornado's head kept mentioning 52. Thats about it.

the Lady Styx stuff they mentioned in 52, is also tied into the Omega Men mini, as well as it seems to be connected to GLC.

Are you kidding me? What hype? Most people didn't even know it was happening, even comic collectors down at the LCS had no idea until they saw it on the shelf.

While Civil War, was just the opposite, people I know and work with who don't and have never collected comics, tried their best to keep up with what was happening in it, and knew stuff.

WW3 raped.

See?having Jonn as a fave is an advantage occasionally.

Well, my shop sold out quickly 😬

and when I got it this week, I realized it was just a big waste of money.

It makes you realize how bad 52 could have been if Johns, Waid, Rucka and Morrison hadn't been on board

His mini was a LOT better than his appearance in WWIII

I don't really know anything about Mr. Mind. Could someone tell me how he's going to be a threat to the DCU?

Because the guys who made 52 had a brain fart. The villain should've been Extant or The master of time or some other time or reality alterer. Mister Mind is an overly hyped slug.

I love the fact that Cap's villains are moving up the scale.

That can only bode that Cap himself will have a more involved role in DC.

But i'll only care if they somehow get Cap back into the Redz without use of a retcon.

Extant was lame.

Ext@nt...
What about Logan, Basti0n, Eclipso, and David Richards (probably more)?

I am not those people. This has been covered already.

You denying it, doesn't cover it.

No but the fact that I've been given clearance by the mods does.

Why have people always been such unbelievable dicks to Eclipso and Starhawk?

You joined late... you wouldn't understand.

That your spamming a thread and taking it off topic? No, the fact is I help make Eclipso's ban permanent. I am not him and I won't be blamed for things he did.
